This Wiki page has our understanding from last September about
the number of specification documents and what they would contain:
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/Draft_DITA_1.2_Specification_Review_Assignments
Back then there were 9 separate specification documents on the
list:
The 4 from Michael’s list:
Base Arch Spec
Base Language Reference
Tech content (combined arch
and language ref)
Learning and training
(combined arch and language ref)
Plus:
Specification Overview (the thing that OASIS
really approves)
Utility Domain Specializations (combined arch
and language ref)
Software and programming (combined arch and
language ref)
Machine Industry (combined arch and language
ref)
Classification, controlled values, and
Taxonomies (arch and language ref)

Subject: [dita] Spec chunking proposal
Here's my
recall of how we were going to try chunking the specs - basing it on the
DTD/XSD packaging decision here:
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/Draft_list_of_doctype_shells_to_be_included_in_DITA_1.2
So for three
doctypes packages, I'm thinking four spec documents:
Base package:
- architectural
spec
- language spec
for topic/map (doctypes/domains listed in package)
Tech content
package:
- single spec,
combining arch/overview with language spec for doctypes/domains in package
Learning and
training package:
- single spec,
combining arch/overview with lang spec for doctypes/domains in package
